When they were sitting down, Danielle said she wanted 75000 pesos for half the things in the house. Assuming that’s rent + utilities, 75000 pesos to USD is 1320. $2640 for an apartment down there seems a little… excessive?
I believe 100% Danielle promised this man a lifestyle she couldn’t afford. Why else would he consider being in a relationship with her. She gaslight him into a relationship and now she reaping what she sow. Yohan had a whole meat market when she arrived and she came in like a barking CEO pooping all over his hustle. She could have helped him turn the business profitable. It was something to work with now they azz out with nothing but her US debt that keeps getting deeper. She rubs me the wrong way. Yohan comes off as honest to me, bank dipping aside. I think if she’d had the convo with him in private opposed to in front of millions of people he would have told the truth quicker than he eventually did in front of the cameras. She ambushed him on TV about a very embarrassing situation, i’ll say it again, she rubs me the wrong way every time she’s on screen. I’m not saying Yohan is perfect, but I understand why he behaves as such, she be trying to emasculate him.
When they were looking at apartments, she insisted that they have a very nice one with all the upgrades and she’s living in a gated community with the pool and other amenities so it would be that expensive
According to his breakdown its not just rent, its car rental, food and utilities also. So not 75,000 for rent.
Recalling how he ate $200 worth of hotel peanuts I get the impression he’s a costly partner in general.
I’m not sure I’ve eaten $200 in peanuts my entire life
My husband is a casual watcher of the show. Mainly because he is often in the room when I am watching it. So he doesn’t have a solid memory of who each person is, without a reminder.
The biggest thing he remembers about Yohan is that $200 in peanuts.
In my household, Yohan is “peanut guy”.
In the scene where Danielle was upset about all the ATM withdrawals, my husband commented, “He needed more peanuts.”
I find it funny how her spiritual advisor Baba warned her to stay away from the nuts. hahhaha
He has a misguided understanding of her finances. She knows this so I don’t understand why she would give him access to her account. These 2 just need to let this mess go. They are oil and water.
She didn’t give him access, he took her card and then proceeded to lie about it.
I could have sworn that she left the card on the table.
He’s dead wrong for doing it and lying about it. She’s an idiot for leaving the card lying around and letting him know the PIN. But she’s only there to run from her U.S. financial obligations, which she has hidden from him. She knew he wanted to go to the U.S. but she single handedly nixed that plan.
They lie to each other. She married him to have an anchor in DR and he married her to get to the U.S. He wants kids and she doesn’t want anymore and is rolling up on menopause age.
They need to cut ties yesterday.
When I saw it was like 1822CAD I assumed that was the “American price”. Is it for the apartment only or also car rental, utilities, food?
For everything, she phrased it as you told me your monthly kick in would be 75,000 pesos per month. He stated he is kicking in for rent, car, utilities.
I think this also included car note. I could be wrong
Not even a car note to at least own the car but just straight up rental. Which Danielle said that is $30/day and that was a smart financial decision.
Her decision making should be studied by scientists
He counts it that way. He apparently told her that he can afford 75,000 a month kick in. He says he is paying rent, car, utilities, food.
Didn’t he say it in the episodes from a week or two ago?
I thought he said he pays for half already and wouldn’t have an issue doing so.
I hope she gets every penny and sends his ass back to momma
I think she is being unfair to Yohan. He didn’t as to live in an expensive place that was her choice and its not fair to ask him to pay half for an expensive place he has no desire to pay for. Like he said he was fine at his parents she is the one who isn’t. This is very unfair to him
I don’t know, I don’t buy that Yohan doesn’t want the expensive lifestyle. He has literally said that he deserves to get everything he wants and do nothing. Sounds bougie to me.
Don’t get me wrong, they’re both tools, but Yohan has made it clear he mostly wants an American sugar mama.
I believe he asked her to buy a house. I’m sure she opted for a rental because she knew the game but he knows the game too. They’re exhausting to watch as they try to pull scams on each other.
She said half of expenses I believe, not rent.
I can’t even get on board with this. He expressed to her multiple times he couldn’t / didn’t want to pay that much for rent. She responded by saying he had better find a new wife is he thinks he’s going to live for free. Taking away everything else, no sane person would force their partner to live somewhere they had ALREADY SAID they would not pay that much for. Her still renting that place meant she was on her own for the most part so she should live with that.
I completely agree with you… but I can’t shake the feeling that this guy is lazy.
He’s a Hanky Sanky. His JOB is to lure American women who are on vacation with their pene grande and promises of eternal love. He likely worked at a resort where American women frequent as a server or towel boy. So yes, he’s likely VERY lazy since he’s used to the jaded American women giving and promising the world while on their 1 week vacation. Jamaica and DR seem to be the origins and breeding grounds for these Hanky Sankys.
Could be. Honestly many people are that way but they are also ok with cheaper rent and living expenses bc they simply don’t want to work more or look for a better job, learn new skills etc. From what I saw Danielle was the one insisting on a luxury apartment not Yohan. Also, you should know and understand your partner’s goals, motivations, and living preferences (or “lack” thereof) prior to a legal marriage.
I’m tired of both of these turds. They hate each other. He only wants her money and she wants his pene grande. She needs to call it quits and move back to NYC already…. On second thought, she can stay in the DR lol!!!
I’ve watched a lot of 90 DF but somehow hadn’t come across Danielle and Yohan, was wondering why people don’t seem to like her. But this is a GREAT summary lololol
I think they were originally a Love in Paradise couple if you wanted to watch them from the beginning.
He’s a Sanky Panky. They prey on American Women. Typically working at a place where they frequent, such as a beach resort. They suck the women in with their pene Grande and then they have them hooked.
My fiancés main reason for disliking her is the lack of understanding for Dominican culture.
DR is a 3rd world country and a lot of people’s priority is to get to the US to work and send money back. Danielle dangled citezenship in front of Yohan get him. He never wanted to stay in DR.
So now he’s married to an American living in DR. She makes money online and he’s stuck with the same limited opportunities.
They both suck but I do have sympathy for Yohan.
I’m not sure I understand calling “The DR priority is to get to the US” is considered culture. Culture is tradition and customary behavior. Tying to scam Americans to achieve THEIR priority of getting to the US is exactly that……a SCAM. Culture? Not in the slightest. He’s what’s called called a Hanky Sanky. That’s not a culture.
f she can work online, why can’t he? He doesn’t want any job, he flat out refuses to make any contribution to their rent or rental car because he only wants to own a house and car for status. They would probably never own a house in the US either. I have zero sympathy for him, he just wants to sit back and be taken care of by a well off American, which he thought Danielle was.
You hit the nail on the head. If you’ve read this thread, you know all you need to know. Watching the episodes will just make you wanna throw a shoe through your TV
They annoy the hell out of me too. They don’t even like each other, why are they together. I can’t stand seeing them anymore and the toxic arguing.
Of she moves back then she had to face legal issues. I think she avoided everything by running away.
What type of legal issues are we talking about?
She declared bankruptcy and is in heaps of debt
She owes the state of New York 200k plus dollars in fucking toll fees for one lmao
How do you let it go that far? Was she ignoring the bills or driving a stolen car? That’s insane
It’s more like 50k.
Bingo. They are using each other, and neither of them are victims. They are both whiny turds who deserve what the other is giving them. Get divorced and moved on already…
New York does not want her.
she wants his pene grande.
She doesn’t seem to grasp that this is the trade off. She’s paying for big dick. It’s a quid pro quo. She seems mistaken that this relationship is anything but that.
She obviously wants Yohan out of the house with these inflated figures. But all I can think of is, please breakup already so Danielle can be gone from of screens forever!!
I watch enough house hunters international to know expats get hosed in alot of places
He’s a part-time crayon tester, she’s getting her PhD in underwater basket weaving - they have a budget of 3 million dollars!
I’m not condoning Daniele’s behaviour, but Yohan mentally checked out once he learned she wasn’t taking him to the US. He says the life in DR isn’t good and all he will be doing is paying rent, WTF does he think will happen when he goes to the US? It seems to me he just views Daniele as a meal ticket.
She did lie to him & told him she was going to get his papers so he could move to the US. Didn’t tell him she wasn’t planning on doing any of that until she moved down. He’s said he wanted to work in the US & make a better life for himself. She’s wrong for lying to him about their plans
He wants to send remittances back home to DR. That’s what he mentioned in their first season about going to the US. It’s why his family was also excited for him to move to the US because anything he’d be able to send would make a difference for them.
She wanted to live in a luxury apartment and made him shell out half the expenses for their living arrangements. He stated he didn’t want to do that during their first season on 90 day after love in paradise. It’s steep because that’s what she wanted and that’s what luxury costs. If I’m not mistake. The place they’re in was charging $2k usd when they filmed the previous season.
Exactly. She wants him to pay half of an apartment that is beyond luxury for their budget. But she has shown she will make unilateral decisions without give two hoots about his opinion over and over.
Also, why aren’t we talking about her holding up these Christmas presents for ransom until he pays rent? “There are 40 more packages to pick up but I need the rent money to do it” huh?
All those people who donated didn’t realize she was just using them as a pawn in her control games.
Her definition of “luxury” is warped. It’s not luxurious to not be able to afford rent.
Luxury is to sleep at night knowing you can cover your bills. Luxury is not fighting with your spouse over a lifestyle you can’t afford. Being in debt for supposedly nice stuff is not “luxury,” though I know many people think it is.
Budgeting is luxury, lol!
Luxury is $200 worth of peanuts
She’s a fucking scam artist, she won’t go back to the states because she owes money there, she only left because she couldn’t financially hang in New York. She’s already turned Yohan into a piece of shit (didn’t take much work). She just wants as much as she can get from any situation.
As much as I despise her I don’t think she owes any back debts since she filed bankruptcy. Someone far more knowledgeable than me can hopefully weigh in.
I dont really know you may be right, I’d also love for an expert to weigh in.
Neither of these are sympathetic characters and neither emits any pathos whatsoever. They don’t need to be with each other and we never need to see either of these again.
